Fig. 4. Confocal Z-series showing microtubule organization at different stages of
meiosis I. (A-C) Mid-prometaphase cell labelled with antibodies against
tubulin and with acridine orange to reveal the chromosomes. (B) and (C) are
stereo images. (A) Bar, 5 µm. (B,C). Bar, 10 µm. (D) Late prometaphase
cell stained for acetylated tubulin (left) and tyrosinated tubulin (right).
The arrowheads indicate the kinetochore fibres of the two sex chromosomes.
Bar, 10 µm. (E) Anaphase cell stained for acetylated tubulin (left) and
tyrosinated tubulin (right). Bar, 10 µm.
